Fashion Re-DIY

In case you were coveting the new MSGM fringed sandals but weren’t able to buy them before they sold out – or you didn’t want to spend close to a thousand dollars for them! – we have the perfect solution. With some varied Jillson & Roberts ribbon, rhinestones, and a glue gun we made our own high fashion version!

We used 1″ Black ribbon (FR1021) for the strap and glued layers of fringe, made from strips of gold stretch tinsel (STC15), black curling poly (PC24), and natural paper raffia (PR18) onto the back. Then we made tassels from white and blue natural raffia (PR24 and PR01), orange curling (CM620), 5/8th inch brown satin (FR0907), and white grosgrain ribbon (FR1224 cut into smaller strips), which were glued on top. We also added some rhinestones in between for sparkle. To finish it off we put some velcro on the ends to hold it tight around your ankle. And voilà a versatile and fashionable embellishment for your favorite strappy heels! One of our beautiful and stylish J&R team members generously offered to model them for us.
